Break the Impasse Now!

Here's a suggestion for breaking the Washington Impasse. 

Speaker Buehner, just say to President Obama, we Republicans in the House will drop our funding issue with the Affordable Care Act on two simple conditions: You must commit to open negotiations with Congress and the House of Representative regarding the budget and the debt limit immediately, and you must agree to drop all exemptions to the Affordable Care Act. If Obamacare is good enough for the working class citizens of this great country, then it must apply to all citizens with no exceptions.

The reaction to that challenge would be interesting and though I doubt Obama would agree to it, the very nature of the challenge would make all voters think twice about why Obama needs to exempt special interests from his keystone health plan. When he tries to suggest that the Republicans are playing politics, Mr. Boehner should simply ask, what could be more political than picking and choosing who will and who will not have to submit to this convoluted and bureaucratic nightmare of his creation?

There will be another time and place to confront the program, which if allowed, may well collapse under it's own weight anyway.
